That morning, Lin Yanbai had just woken up from his sleep when he heard Xiao Qi's long-lost voice: "Hello, host, you are sleeping so soundly. I called you for a long time but you ignored me!"
Xiao Qi felt a little aggrieved, but Lin Yanbai wasn't buying it: "You've been so elusive lately, it's hard for me to even contact you, and you're still feeling aggrieved!"
"Hehe, I knew the host must miss me. Don't worry, I'm back... I went back for training these two days and I'm so tired that I can't even watch TV or read novels..." Xiao Qi also felt very resentful.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. By the way, host, a new mission has been issued, you need to complete it quickly!"
Lin Yanbai quickly pulled out the task interface. Sure enough, the task panel that had not changed for a long time refreshed with new tasks. Looking at the clearly visible line of words, Lin Yanbai felt that he might as well not be able to read!
It was clearly written on the task panel: Marry Gu Xingfan within three months and you will receive generous rewards, plus a mysterious gift package.
Lin Yanbai looked at the task panel, not knowing what to say. This task was so strange, as if it was pushing her towards Gu Xingfan. Besides...
"Xiao Qi, come out! Why is there a time limit on this mission?"
"...Host, this is not something I can decide. The tasks are all issued by the higher-ups!" Xiao Qi said aggrievedly.
Lin Yanbai finally understood. From what he could see at the moment, this guy could only act cute and watch TV series and read novels. When the time came to use him, he would be of no use at all!
Although Lin Yanbai didn't say anything, Xiao Qi sensitively sensed from his expression that she definitely didn't mean anything good.
"Host, are you scolding me for being useless in your heart?"
Little guy, you are quite sensitive.
Lin Yanbai quickly said a few nice words to coax her naive little sweet child, and Xiaoqi was like a child, who was easily coaxed!
Thinking of the task the system had just assigned her, she couldn't help but sigh. This task, wasn't it forcing her to take root in this era?
Lin Yanbai complained that the tasks issued by this system were getting more and more weird. What did her system, Lin Yanbai's, have to do with Gu Xingfan? It was outrageous. If Gu Xingfan knew about it, he would be so happy.
Seeing Lin Yanbai's depressed look, Xiao Qi sensibly comforted her, "Baibai, there's no need to do it now. You can observe him for a while, and then consider this task when you want to get married! Anyway, the free draw every day is enough for you!"
Lin Yanbai: ...So in your eyes I am just a foodie, right?
All in all, Lin Yanbai patted her face and decided to put the mission behind her for the time being. Although the reward was very attractive to her, she decided to put the matter of marriage aside for now!
Lin Wan at school has been so upset lately that her head is about to explode. Graduation is approaching and her classmates have found new places to go one after another, which makes her even more anxious.
Whenever she thought of this, she couldn't help but curse Lin Yanbai in her heart. Yes, she didn't think that Lin Yanbai was incapable of finding her a job. Otherwise, why did Lin Chen have one but she didn't?
She felt that Lin Yanbai did it on purpose. As time went by, she even felt a little resentful towards Liu Mei and the others. They didn't love her at all. They had been immersed in Lin Chen's affairs these two days, as if she, Lin Wan, was a stranger.
No, she has to think about herself. She can't just sit there and wait for death, otherwise she will really have to go to the countryside.
Thinking of this, Lin Wan skipped class, packed her schoolbag and went straight to the textile factory.
When Liu Mei heard someone say her daughter was looking for her, she thought it was Lin Yanbai. When she went out to see, she found it was Lin Wan. She asked in confusion, "Wanwan? Shouldn't you be in class right now?"
Lin Wan was sweating profusely from running, looking quite dusty. Upon hearing this, tears quickly formed in her big eyes and began to fall down quickly and continuously.
She just stood there timidly, not saying a word, just crying. Liu Mei couldn't bear to see her pitiful look, so she hurried forward to comfort her.
"Wanwan, what's wrong? Why are you crying? Did someone bully you at school?"
Hearing this, Lin Wan looked at Liu Mei blankly. After a long while, she said aggrievedly, "Mom, am I... am I going to the countryside?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! The conditions in the countryside are so difficult, how could your father and I let you go!" Liu Mei scolded, but she already understood why Lin Wan was sad.
She comforted him, "Don't worry, Mom is thinking of a way. The best thing is to buy you a job so that you can solve your problem once and for all!"
"But Mom... our classmates said that all the major factories aren't hiring this year, and with the dire situation, it's impossible to buy a workstation!"
"This..." How could Liu Mei not know what Lin Wan was talking about? She had been asking about this recently. Seeing Liu Mei speechless, Lin Wan's tears flowed even harder.
"Wan, don't worry. Mom will definitely not let you go to the countryside. Mom will think of a way for you. I will definitely find a way..."
The mother and daughter, one crying uncontrollably and the other panicking, couldn't help but attract the attention of Ge Hongyan who was passing by.
"What happened to you two? Why is Wanwan crying? Who bullied you?"
Lin Wan looked at her pitifully. Liu Mei said embarrassedly, "Isn't it that our Lin Wan hasn't found a job yet? This kid is so anxious!"
"Oh, this matter! We really need to hurry up and do it. Not to mention the recruitment quota this year, there are very few temporary workers... I heard that after your Yan Bai batch was hired, the factory probably won't recruit for the next two years!"
Hearing this, Lin Wan panicked even more: "Mom——"
Not to mention Lin Wan, even Liu Mei was a little overwhelmed by the news: "Hongyan, is this true? Where did you get the news?"
"It's almost right!" Ge Hongyan looked mysterious.
Suddenly, Ge Hongyan had an idea and said, "Well, your Lin Wan is also easy to deal with. She's a high school student and very pretty. If you really have no other choice, just find someone with good conditions to marry her!"
After saying that, he looked at Lin Wan again, then turned to look at Liu Mei: "Don't say I don't think about you. Isn't our Lao Li working in the towel factory? The deputy director of their factory is looking for a wife for his son recently. He said that as long as it works out, he will arrange a job for her. If you are interested, let the two children meet her!"
Lin Wan next to her lowered her head shyly, but in fact her ears were perked up, determined not to miss a single word.
"This...her Aunt Ge, is this reliable? If she's really so good, why would she still be worried about finding a partner?"
"Nothing is perfect in this world. That young man's family is indeed well-off, but he's a bit ugly, and he's not willing to settle. Isn't that going to make his family anxious?"
